Robin Thicke And Son Julian At The Grove

Robin Thicke visited The Grove yesterday for an appearance on Extra TV with Mario Lopez and he brought his adorable two year old son Julian along for the appearance. He is currently promoting his new role on ABC’s ‘Duets’ where he will serve as a mentor.

Robin and Paula are busy parents who have found a way to make parenthood work with their careers by alternating time with their son while they are both working as well as schedule skype sessions with him when they are away. He told People.com:

It was hard when we became parents, because we had to balance our careers with this new person in our lives. I lost my mojo for awhile. But finally we hit a rhythm, and we are more in love than ever and so supportive of each other. We are both crazy about our son. Julian has changed my music and made me think less of myself. He is an angel, the greatest thing that has ever happened to me.

Check out the pics

Later that night, Robin joined Paula for a Sundance Institute benefit at Tiffany’s & Co

Robin’s mother (Gloria Loring) is very blonde, and Paula’s mother is white. Not too much of a mystery.

I don’t think it’s a “complexion” issue LENA was saying. It’s just kind of a natural reaction when you see the baby because I honestly saw him and was like, “Daaaaayum! He’s PALE!” lol
It just throws you off guard for a quick sec. But we know (HOPEFULLY)we all come in different colors/hues/complexions.

He is definitely a little cutie and I want to just tousle those big blonde curls of his!

Well robin is white and Paula Patton is biracial although she chooses to call herself African American so I can understand why he doesnt look how people would “assume” he would…

Paula was on Chelsea Lately around the time Jumping The Broom was about to be released and she joked that people thinks she’s his nanny lol instead of his mommy.
Nonetheless he’s such a cutie!! Really love Robin and Paula

He has features of a black person tho (nose, lips) his blonde hair and skin just throws you off…he looks more like Paula IMO

I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING!!!

I agree I am not mad that Julian is so pale, just surprised. It’s funny b/c the kid really contradicts the one drop rule. Plus, I wonder what his life experience will be. How many times he’ll be around someone who makes a negative comment about a Black woman and he’ll cringe b/c Paula identifies herself as Black.

+2 Kay Reply:September 19th, 2013 at 6:31 pm

The mom barely looks black to begin with. So why is the baby looking white hard to believe?

+11 Who needs talent!? Reply:June 7th, 2012 at 9:55 am

The baby has blonde hair!? I love blondes and redhead babies. But where did the blonde come from? Hes adorable! I love love love Paula and Robin!!! Cute family.

I was thinking the same thing. There must a strong recessive gene in that caucasian blood. He’s a cutie nonetheless. I personally think blonde kids aren’t usually that cute – I think red heads are the cutest caucasians tho!

Not sure if ppl even know, but Robin colors his hair very dark. He was more of a light brown in his early career/long hair era. Plus, I agree, the genetics are strong. The baby is only a third Black. Paula is half white (mother) and half black (father). #justsayin

He probably won’t have it when he gets older. A lot of kids start out as blonde but their hair gets darker as they get older. My cousin has two daughters with a white woman and they both started out as blondes, but only one still is.

That is one cute child! Just wanna pinch his cheeks! I’m glad most of the people here are mature minded people because I don’t even wanna know what is going on in the comment section of a blo-g that rhymes with gossip…

Yes girl genetics are amazing. That’s why I love being of color you never know what complexion your baby might just pop out. And yes (for some of the uneducated folks out there) two black people can birth a “white” child. However, two “white” people can not birth a black child. And I’m not talking about Albinos either. Don’t believe me….Google it. None the less the baby is a cutey!

SAY WHAT?! WOW I just i got my early morning education, i really had no idea two black people can birth a white child. Thats amazing and shocking at the same time

Yes you’ll be surprised.. I am jamaican and even tho my family is cross mixed my lil cousin came out spanish looking, and her sister with the prettiest caramel skin color with ocean ble eyes.. Where they got it from no one knows…

two white people can birth a black child it has happened before 2 times that have been studied and its beacuse same as blacks having whites in there family history , whites also have blacks in there blood line and it can pop up at any time with in the generation > dont always trust google do research and educate yourself . (no dis intended ) forexample, Sandra Laing GOOGLE THAT and please educate yourself before you attempt to educate others …..once again no dis intended just sharing my knowledge cause i hate when fello classmates do research through “google” and swear to the most high that they know they stuff … i.e. i did my masters term papaer on biracial and genetic studies ..

their* sorry for grammatical errors

Quick question, (seriously no diss), in your research how can 2 whites have a “Black kid” b/c blackness popped up in their bloodline? Black traits are usually dominant so how can it pop up if the 2 parents are homozygous recessive for White traits?

So, I understand where the above poster is trying to come from b/c Blacks can be heterozygous for recessive or White traits, but I don’t understand yours. It might just be my misunderstanding of what you all mean by “Black kid” and “White kid”….

ACE Reply:June 7th, 2012 at 1:14 pm

i said popped up in their bloodline as a simple way of sayin it, didnt wanna act like a knowitall n start using big words n sh*t genetics is a very complex thing and yes two white parents can have a physically african american child a “black child” with coco brown skin thick curly hair or even a as we say it “lightskin” child , i gave you a factual person to GOOGLE so you can get all your answers there she was one of the cases that i did my research study on , and her mother had 2 “black”children both parents were white like i said before when plp act like knowitalls it annoys me so i wont give you a page long snipet of my research just as you do GOOGLE it sandra laing no need to make this into any thing more and as u said “(for some of the uneducated folks out there”) and tried to educate us please educate yourself and then pass on the FACTS

we learn something new everyday and sometimes we are wrong and its ok tyo be wrong im not tryna knck you i just enlightened you since you didnt know that is was possible , come on we all human all u had to do was google the name and then say “hay didnt know that thanks for the info” but no you comeback and try to validate your statement

BY THE WAY CUTEEEEE BABY LOOKS LIKE HIS MOM (didnt mean to go off topic just wanted to correct the fellow reader”

+6 yoooooo Reply:June 7th, 2012 at 11:05 am

When you say white child what do you mean? Fair skin, blonde & straight hair, thin & longer nose, thinner lips, blue hair & green or blue eyes etc all at the same time? That’s extremely rare, near impossible unless both of the Black parents you’re referring to are mixed….

Now I have friends veryyyyy fair but with course hair, & friends brown-skinned with green/blue eyes & dark-skinned friends with extremely straight hair, but no one looking like Gwenth Paltrow or Cameron Diaz with biological parents like Bey & Jay.

+2 ms.mykimoto2u Reply:June 7th, 2012 at 11:41 am

Actually it’s not impossible just very rare but this african couple, both dark skinned had a blonde hair blue eyed baby that wasn’t albino like 2 yrs ago. And this white couple had twin boys, one was white the other black so it’s definately possible. As far as little robin thicke goes, he has more white in him than black and u know how white ppl are. They can be born with blonde hair and by the time they are 10, their hair is brown or red

+1 yoooooo Reply:June 7th, 2012 at 11:59 am

I didn’t say impossible but nearly impossible b/c anything can happen. But I wonder whats the genetics behind it. I’ve only taken a few undergraduate biology classes, so I’m open for learning. Thats why I asked for clarification. But I do understand the saying “Mama’s baby, Daddy’s maybe”….& I take the stories about Black child to White Parents or White Child to Black parents with a grain of salt. Journalism=sensationalism.

lol did i just go in on the first poster thinkin it was him replying lol IM VERY SORRY but yea “YOOOO” google her and all your answers are there

Why is this a shock when we know the Black woman is the original woman of the earth. ALL human life originated from her (you).

Well i dont think you have to go calling folks uneducated as if it’s their fault for not knowing this, people don’t know everything, but anyway, it’s true with most blacks we have euro-genetics because of slavery, and sometimes unkept records. My family is spread all over the West Indies, and we have every shade of color both of my parents are dark skin and i came out lighter because of my grandmothers on my mother and father side. Genetics is so complex espeically when everybody mixes and Paula isn’t 100% black, most of us aren’t even if we think we are.

Zama Reply:June 7th, 2012 at 1:06 pm

Hey guys. Jus to add my 2cents. White ppl can in fact have a child of color and vice versa. Here in South Africa there’s an amazing story of white parents who had a black/coloured girl in the apartheid era. Imagine the HORROR!such an interesting read:Google Sandra Laing

I saw Robin Thicke on a tv show recently saying his mom has blonde hair and
Paula’s mom has blonde hair as well. So maybe that’s where little Julian get’s it
from. He is very cute and who knows his hair might darken up when he get’s older.

The two grandmothers are blond and Robin was blond as a baby so Julian’s hair will darken as he grows older. Julian is all Robin but the next one will probably look more like Paula. I love the pic where Robin is holding his face and kissing him.

Cute kid I kept asking why is he blond then ding dong arent at least one of their moms blond so you genetics are funny two tall people might produce a short person but one of the grandparents was short or vice versa, thats how my family is lol

OMG mixed babies are full of surprises! you never know what your gonna get. one could have curly jet black hair, the next could have fine blonde hair. my bf/cousin is mixed and has frizzy red hair and freckles! she can’t wait until she has a child just to see what he/she will look like lol their baby is so cute!

The baby is cute and Paula looks amazing in that dress. I love her entire look. The shoes are so pretty. Her and Robin look good together. Alot of you ladies think he is fine and I dont see it. He’s alright I guess but white men do absolutely nothing for me at all.

Everyones in a hurry to lighten the next generation, it’s more important to date and breed with lighter skin tones and better hair, what will be left? how do you preserve your lineage? but if yall like it I love it.

That’s a very good point. Of course you’d get thumbs down tho! The hispanics are breeding like crazy – they’re surpassing us in terms of children being born – there’s been a huge boom w/ blacks breeding w/ non blacks. In 50 years I predict there will be fewer darker fleshed blacks in the U.S

@ Vicky you sound stupid , these people have been together since high school do you really think as teenagers they were like our baby is going to look like this ! In case you didn’t know Black genes are dominant and the foundation for all other races so there is no way you can get rid of it! Love your self for you and not your complexion stop the self hate!

you would think they were giving away a nobel peace prize in genetics by the comments, some of you need to calm down and stop talking “at” people instead of just sharing a simple comment about why his hair is blonde. LLS, and i’m sure thats the one thing you know as far as genetics are concerned.

Paula is mixed she’s not black. I’m actually shocked that this was even brought up though! Who cares… WHO CARES what color he is he’s healthy and has two parents who are married and in love. That’s a beautiful thing

check out a movie called Skin.. story of Sandra Laing and you will see that DNA prove that two white people can have a black child. I happended in the 60s in a very very race driven South Africa. Of all the places for this to happen.. God wanted to prove something to the South Africans at the time

that kid is barely black, if that! he has a white father, who is ugly and pasty by the way, and a biracial mother…..all that child needs to do is have kids with a white woman and paula’s black side will be white washed and forgotten. and i’m going to say it if no one will, the kid is not cute.

So cute! For those of you who don’t know Paula Patton’s natural hair is blonde. She is a woman of more than one ethnic background. Cute Baby. I wish America was like other countries that are classified by their country and not their race or color. When American’s go to a different country, they are classified as American’s (not black, not white, not light skinned, but Americans). We are the only one’s that have a problem with who we are. Just a little food for thought.

That is one KA-YUUUTE baby…. but he doesn’t look like either one of them. I mean AT ALL!! So weird how mixed babies turn out. My son is mixed (me black, dad white) and I wonder all the time what my grandbabies will look like. I guess it just depends on who he has them with lol. I can imagine myself walking around in the future with a little white blond haired grandbaby and people thinking I kidnapped him/her lol. Of course he/she will be loved and spoiled regardless. Guess we’ll have to wait and see!

I have a mixed little cousin and he looks white too with his blonde hair. Haha I love it tho, so unique. Something about mixed kids with white fathers.. they never really look like the rest of the mixed kids I know. But anyway, Paula & Robin have one cute baby boy!

the baby is more white than black. with paula being mixed and robin thicke being white, the baby is bound to come out looking closer to its white heritage. look at halle’s baby. regardless, beautiful family

This child is beautiful! Even if he wasn’t pale, with blonde hair, he would still be beautiful. I don’t understand why skin color still matters so much to so many people. Is it not the year 2012? Even if both of Paula’s parents were black, it wouldn’t be impossible for this couple to have a child that looks exactly as Julian does. I am black and I have naturally dark brown hair. Both of my parents are black and were born in America. Both of my parents had dark brown hair as well. Also, my maternal and paternal grandparents were born in America. My husband of 15 years is white and he has naturally blonde hair. His hair has darkened as he has gotten older, but it was so blonde that it was white when he was a child. His mom was born in America and his dad was born in Scotland. His mom has has always had blonde hair and her mom had blonde hair as well. Her dad’s hair has always been dark. My father in law has dark brown hair and we don’t know how his parents looked because he was adopted and brought to America by his adoptive parents when he was a child. When we found out we were pregnant, with a boy, 11 years ago, our only concern was having a healthy baby. Although we wondered, we were not at all worried about how he would look. My baby was born with no color and straight, bright red hair. My labor and delivery report stated that his color was 0 at birth and 1 after three minutes. After the three minutes passed, his skin color turned pink but his hair was still red! My husband and I were very happy that he was healthy and that he finally had some color to his skin. Everyone, including my husband’s family were shocked. They kept saying, he’ll get darker as he gets older. But as I looked at those pink ears, I knew that was not possible. I loved my baby just the was he was. I would have loved him equally if his skin were the color of mine. My skin color is the same as Jada Pinkett-Smith’s when she is natural, without makeup. My son is still beautiful to me and my husband today as a healthy, happy 11 year old. He is very well spoken and has many friends of all different races. He knows how much of an issue that race is in this country because we have talked to him about this on numerous occasions. He has a wonderful relationship with my family as well as with my husband’s family. He knows exactly who he is and he doesn’t need anyone to tell him that he has to choose either black or white. He considers himself bi-racial because he wants to represent his mother and his father. He is not mixed, and I despise that word because mixing breeds is only for animals. He is a human being and above all else he is American. Yes, he is still as pale as his father and his hair is still red. The only difference in his appearance now is that his hair is soft and curly and he has freckles. I only can hope that as he becomes an adult that he is not discouraged by the ignorance that some people choose to hold on to. I will continue to instill in him the history of his heritage from my family and his father’s family. I think Robin and Paula will do the same with their adorable son Julian.

Julian is only 25% black. 75% white. that is why he looks more white. look at mariah carey. she is half black and half white. she looks more white. mariah careys kids with nick cannon. their twins are 25% white. 75% black. but they look more white than black
